Puttin' my defences up 'Cause I don't wanna fall in love If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack
Never put my love out to the world Never said yes to the right girl Never had trouble getting what I want But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough
When I don't care I can play along like a Ken doll Won't wash my hair Then make 'em bounce like a basketball
But you make me wanna act like a guy Who will buy flowers and open doors Yes, you make me so nervous That I just can't hold your hand
You make me glow, but I cover up Won't let it show, so I'm
Puttin' my defences up 'Cause I don't wanna fall in love If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack [x3]
Never break a sweat for the other girls I've always been a fool, for them blonde curls And every time I try to be myself It comes out wrong like a cry for help
It's just not fair Pain's more trouble than love is worth I gasp for air It feels so good, but you know it hurts
But you make me wanna act like a guy Who will buy flowers and open doors Yes, you make me so nervous That I just can't hold your hand
You make me glow, but I cover up Won't let it show, so I'm
Puttin' my defences up 'Cause I don't wanna fall in love If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack [x3]
The feelings are lost in my lungs They're burning, I'd rather be numb And there's no one else to blame So scared I'll take off in a run I'm flying too close to the sun And I burst into flames
You make me glow, but I cover up Won't let it show, so I'm
